Twenty-one students from eight cities across Gregg, Upshur and Rusk counties were inducted May 16 into the National Adult Education Honor Society by the Kilgore College Adult Education Program.

According to Bobbie McGee-Benson, KC’s director of adult basic education, to qualify for NAEHS membership, students must demonstrate effort, achievement, perseverance, initiative and desire.

Selections were made from nearly 1,500 students enrolled in adult education classes in Gregg, Rusk and Upshur counties during the 2012-13 program year, including literacy, English as a Second Language, Adult Basic Education and GED students.
